This blog has been created to encourage, equip and enpower you as you walk the path of discipleship.
As a follower of Christ, we know that God calls us to become Christlike. That means that we must "grow up" in Him. We watch our Master, Jesus and then learn from His example. How do we that? By reading His word, and learning to prayerfully apply it to our lives. I honestly believe, and I know Ann does too, that God's word is our guidebook for life. We will never encounter a situation or circumstance that Jesus doesn't show us how to handle.
If there is one thing I have learned on my journey down the path of discipleship it is this... it is not easy. We all know that growing up is hard. Remember what it was like to grow into an adult? Growing up in Christ, learning to be like Him and act Him will be a life long journey. It will be full of rich experiences.
- We well feel joy, and we will feel pain.
- We will experience victory, and we will fail.
- We will know the joy of being loved by our spiritual family, and we will know the pain of being criticised by them too.
No matter what life throws our way our job is to seek His guideance. It is to listen for that small voice that God promises will be there to guide you...
21 Your ears will hear a word behind you, “This is the way, walk in it,” whenever you turn to the right or to the left. (Is 30:21 NASB).
I'm not saying the path that we are led down will be easy... when is character building ever an easy task? Isn't that what growing up in Christ really is, developing Christ like character?
We can learn and grow together. We can share the process with each other... that is what we want to do with you. It is our prayer that you will blessed and encouraged by what you read here. It is our hope that you will share with us your journey so that we can learn from you too.
